Yak Marriage

"Honestly," Rarity said in a chastising tone as she changed the open sign to close and lead Spike and Yona to the back room. "I get you where planning to make it a surprise and such, but you should have told me you where engaged, your lucky Cadance dropped by and gave me the good news,"

"Yeah," Spike said in a very convincing tone "Luck Ember spilled the beans," Rarity slid to a stop and grabbed Spike's face, pinching his cheeks as she did so.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to come off so rudely, I'm just so proud of you, look at how much you've grown,"

"I'm pretty sure I'm Ponyvilles' shortest resident," Spike replied simply.

"Oh but getting married, starting a family, oh I'm just so proud of you, it feels like just yesterday you where a cute little baby trying to get my attention, and now your a man coming in with his betrothed," Rarity sniffed, "I think I'm gonna cry,"

"Please don't," Yona begged as Rarity lit her horn and levitated a large book to the duo.

"Don't worry I spent far too long on my makeup to ruin it, now luckily for the both of you, I still have your measurements so all you need to do is give me a dress code and I'll make sure all the creatures you invite keep to it," Yona and Spike stared at her blankly.

"Do what now?" Spike asked in confusion. The Look on Rarity's face indicated they had somehow made a mistake.

"You don't have a theme picked out?" She demanded, "Ok it should be easy to pick one, what kind of flowers are going to be presented?" Yona and Spike stared at her blankly "The Menu?" She tried again, only to gain blank stares "Guestlist?" She pleaded to their blank looks, "A Venue?"

"The What?" The two asked in unified confusion.

"Where is your wedding going to be?" Rarity cried out.

"The Crystal Empire," Spike said simply "Cadance called dibs on planning it,"

"Thank Celestia," Rarity sighed "Alright, have you picked out a date?"

"Two months," Yona and Spike said simply and froze at the look Rarity gave them.

"I think we should run," Spike whispered as Rarity's eye twitched.

"Yona agrees," She said as she and Spike both slowly backed away from her only for Rarity to walk past them silently and rummage in a bag for a moment.

"What did we do?" Yona asked in confusion.

"I don't know," Spike replied as Rarity pulled out a small button and began furiously pressing it, after the 4th push the room lit up and Cadance stood at the ready.

"What did they do?" She Demanded looking around "They're not chickening out are they?"

"Yak's don't chicken!" Yona replied firmly.

"Ok good," Cadance said with a sigh before Rarity spoke up.

"Cadance do you know the date they've picked for their wedding?"

"I hadn't thought to ask yet," Cadance said he voice growing suspicious "what did they pick?"

"Technically speaking it was Rutherford and Ember who picked-,"

"Two Months," Rarity cried out. Cadance stood in silence before turning to the two, without hesitation Yona and Spike dipped out of the room and hid in the kitchen.

"Two months," She demanded turning to the two as they slid out of view from the doorway. "Two Months," She repeated as she rubbed the bridge of her nose "No, it fine," She grumbled "With our luck, everything will go wrong last minute even if you waited a full year," Cadance took a deep breath. "Rarity I'm sorry to ask this of you but-"

"I'll cancel my trip to Manhattan, Spikey Wikey is far more important to me than a fashion expo,"

"Aw," they heard Spike say followed by a wack.

"Don't say that," Yona replied irritably "you'll just encourage her,"

"Yona you not whispering anymore," Spike said sharply, there was a moment of silence before the two slid into view from the kitchen for a moment and stared at Rarity and Cadance before sliding out of view again.

"Maybe don't use the pet name," Cadance whispered.

"Maybe," Rarity replied as Spike and Yona whispered just loud enough for it to be known they were talking to each other, but no loud enough for the actual words to be heard.

"Alright," Candace called out to the two "Have no fear, Cadance is here," She made her way into the kitchen and held her hand to her mouth as she watched Spike whisper into Yona's ear while sitting on her shoulder. "Oh that's adorable," She said making them jump.

"It's not adorable," Spike replied hastily.

"It's efficient," Yona agreed "Easier than having Yona get onto her knees so she can hear his whispers,"

"She also moves faster than me so it helps with travel," Spike added.

"Alright," Cadance said "Anyway don't either of you worry, By this time tomorrow I'll have a fully staffed workforce planning your wedding, the main ceremony will be held in my Throne Room since we never use it. You two don't have to worry about a thing, your weddings going to be perfect, I'll make sure to have so many contingency plans that nothing will ruin this for you,"

"Joy," Spike said in a convincing tone. Cadance gave them a patient smile before teleporting back to whatever she had been doing before.

"Alright," Rarity called out "I've got plans to cancel and new plans to make, see you two tomorrow, Why don't you have a nice dinner together and just enjoy the rest of your day? Things are about to get hectic," Spike and Yona gave Rarity a polite farewell and were silent as they exited her shop, they made it about 5 feet before Yona gave in.

"How are we gonna ruin this now!?" She demanded in as soft of a tone as she could manage.

"We need to think," Spike replied in a slight panic "Fall back, make a base of operations, make lists and charts, study Cadance and her operation, take potshots in the dark, plan our hits decisively, make dam sure no one catches us, obviously where gonna fail a few times at the very least," He said as he tapped his chin in thought, "But so long as we disrupt a few things we should be right as rain,"

"We should go to Sugar Cube Corner, Order food and Caffeinated drinks and set to work on planning the fall of our union,"

"let's just hope Pinkie doesn't know yet," Spike replied as they headed to the Sweetshop, Sugar Cube Corner was pretty empty save for Pinkie taking an order in the back from Rainbow dash and two Mares neither of them recognized. The two stood at the counter and discussed what to get.

"Home Delivery for sure," Spike said as he looked at the menu "So we can get started early,"

"Yona thinks we should get 3 Boxes of Donuts, One for both of us and one extra to split,"

"I'm gonna also get a Ruben from the Sandwich menu you getting anything?"

"Yona will get the Nacho's with Sourcream and extra Black Olives and-" Yona looked to Spike "-Should we order coffee?"

"No, we have enough coffee stored at the castle to provide a small nation with it," Spike replied as he looked at the drink menu. "How about a Milkshake?"

"Milkshakes are pretty good," Pinkie chipped in, the two looked down at the counter to see Pinkie had already jotted down their entire order.

"Vanilla," Yona asked.

"Strawberry," Spike decided after a short pause.

"Anything else?" Pinkie asked with a smile.

"No I think that's it," Spike said after a quick look at the menu "Yona?"

"Yona good," She replied "Put half on Yona's tab,"

"other half on mine," Spike confirmed.

"Okiey Dokie Lokiel," Pinkie cheered before giving them a mischievous glace "I'll bring it to the castle in about 20 minutes,"

"She knows," Spike whispered as Yona slowly backed away.

"Alright," Yona said as she slowly blackout towards the door "See you in 20 minutes," The two made it out the door and where halfway down the street before they started talking.

"We are so gonna get a party when we least expect it," Spike groaned.

"We have 20 minutes before she finishes order," Yona replied "We just have to work fast," The two made it to the castle and Yona slowed down to a walk upon reaching the door, she reached out to open it only for it to open without her, She looked down in silence as Twilight looked up at them in silence.

"Keep the door open," Twilight said simply as she let them in and shut the front door.

"door open?" Yona questioned.

"She means the door to my room,"

"Your dam right I do," Twilight replied as she gave them the stink eye, "Don't know how long this has been going on, but I will admit I'm impressed the two have you have been so successfully sneaky," Yona and Spike gave no reply as they made their way up the stairs. "Just remember, I'll hear if the bed starts rocking!"

"Yona thinks we should start with the rings," The two were sitting in Spikes room, crumbed and torn papers littered the floor around them 'it should be easy you just have to eat them and then we both deny that you did,"

"I hope it's that easy," Spike said as he started writing on a fresh piece of paper, "After that, we need to disrupt the menu, really throw a wrench into it, that will definitely be the easiest part, just have to slightly offend you and the other yaks with the menu so the foods table is wrecked,"

"Yona is confident we can easily achieve that," She replied with a smile, "And after we just have to make the dress code so frilly and fuzzy any and all of the dragons will throw a fit, even if one or two of them might like it they'd still go bat crazy just to save face,"

"Alright," Spike said as he looked at the mess of papers around them "We're already doing better than we have for the last half hour," There was a moment of silence before the two turned to look at the clock. "It's been half an hour," Spike repeated as he turned to look at Yona and sighed. "I thought for sure Pinkie would just bring us the food," Yona got up and once again put Spike on her shoulder as he looked over the notes they had. "Should we invite Blueblood?" Spike asked in a whisper.

"Yona doesn't know who that is," She replied as they walked into the hall and down to the main room, sitting in the center of the darkroom was their food and drinks on a cart, the milkshakes were still frozen Yona had just reached it when Spike realized what was happening.

"It's a trap!" Spike cried out too late as the lights flicked on and a huge crowd of creatures cried out.

"Surprise!" the two looked around the large crown for a moment before Pinkie bounced over to them and blew into a noisemaker.

"We didn't ask for this," They sighed in unison.

"I know!" Pinkie cheered "That's why it a surprise!" She took a deep breath and cried out as a banner dropped "Happy, Got Engaged Party!" Pinkie bounced out of the way as the crowd of ponies came to congratulate the two. Spike rolled up his list and was about to send it back to his room when Applejack plated Yona's back and sent Spike flying off, Spike was easily caught by Yona, but his list was sent flying and caught by Twilight with her magic, the two watched as she unrolled it and read it over. The Two stood in silence as she approached the two and smiled.

"I see you've made a list of everything that could go wrong at your wedding," Twilight said, a twinge of pride in her voice as she read through it "Spike'll try and eat the Rings," She nodded "You never could control yourself around gems, I'll ask Ember about gems Dragons Can't eat," Twilight read the rest of the list "Yaks offended by Food Menu, should be an easy fix if we give them their own Menu, and Dragon Dress code is even easier if we just tell them to wear whatever," Twilight rolled up the list and gave it back to Spike. "When you're done with it just give it to me and, after I've given it a good once over a few times I'll give it to Cadance," She turned to leave before smiling and looking back at them. "Don't think this means you can close the door though, I don't want to hear any rocking beds," as she walked away Spike groaned.

"And we fucking made it harder on ourselves," he blasted the paper and sent it to his room.

"Why didn't you just leave it in the room?" Yona demanded,

"I wasn't thinking," Spike managed to say before more of their combined friends started crowding around them again to congratulate the duo.
